[PATCH 0/5] smb: client: Avoid leaking of sensitive data to the stack or heap

[Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>]

Similar to the patch series that I sent for the server code recently,
here's a clean-up series for the client part:

Sensitive data like keys that are stored in stack-local arrays could be
leaked via the stack to the calling functions, or via the heap when using
only normal kfree() functions.

It's good security practice to clear sensitive data on the stack first
with memzero_explicit() before leaving the context, and to use
kfree_sensitive() for data that is returned to the heap.

Thomas Huth (5):
  smb: client: Clear sensitive stack data in smb2transport.c
  smb: client: Clear sensitive stack and heap data in smb2ops.c
  smb: client: Clear sensitive stack data in cifsencrypt.c
  smb: client: Clear sensitive stack data in smb1encrypt.c
  smb: client: Avoid leaking sensitive data to the heap in connect.c
